Lead generation has become increasingly challenging over the years, and it remains as one of the most critical tasks of a marketing professional. As far as tactics go, 93% of B2B companies agree that content marketing is the way to go—it attracts more leads versus traditional methods.

This statistic makes sense, as content marketing focuses on giving readers relevant information and solutions that can help them learn or solve problems. Research shows that 66.6% of people willingly give their information in exchange for something of perceived value. One of the goals is to get data from them that in return will help you provide them with more relevant and personalized content, and ultimately nudge them further down the marketing and sales funnel.
